“It can become a distraction and it makes me want to disappear after the show,” he said earlier this month. “But at the same time, I feel like I’m in a lovely bubble. As long as Ali’s happy, I’m happy.

“We get on really well, but the show is so successful and I just think people make stuff up. We ignore it.”
